We're All Fine Here, Thanks. How Are You? - The FanFic Social Thread

Indeed it was in reference to J_L and the cheese.

And when I went to start my laundry, I found four large wolf spiders all hanging around the door. One of them crawled into the laundry room and went behind a dryer.

 

Sorry - as someone who's suffered through lactose intolerance to various degrees in my life, this is just ROTFL-worthy.

*ahem* I'll settle down now.

 

Well duh, Findswoman and TrakNar. Constipation is no laughing matter...though I can't exactly speak on that since I've never had any problems in that realm.

Lucky me I guess.

 

ANYWAYS!

(This is a not so discreet Mod suggestion to move the conversation elsewhere before this gets too in depth of a conversation).

 

Hence my original TMI comment, Bri...

 

Yesterday, bugs. Today, poop. Is there something going on that I should know about?

Good morning!

This is my favourite time of the day - early morning in the office when no one else is in yet, and I get to potter around and catch up on the night's conversation here. Okay, there was that bit about video cards that's Hebrew to me, but we can all pretend it's just because I'm not quite awake yet.

moosemousse, I'd love to see your holiday videos. From the Isle of Wight, right? They say it's an amazingly beautiful place.

 

Yes. Insects invade your home while you eat a block of cheese.

And here's one of my Hypno's family tree.


DrSmoothLove is my Ditto. I use it to get the opposite sex. Then I use the new breeding pair and breed for Nature and certain stats. Most of my Pokemon are inbred. Pokemon breeding is squicky.

 

One thing I really enjoy about the FFAMA thread (and these forums in general) is that I learn all sorts of stuff. I'd never even heard about tamales before, I looked it up and now of course I want to try it. Slurp.

 

That totally made me think of this scene. Mmm...64 slices of American cheese!



*goes back to studying*

 

I should give my brother a cute nickname. Usually, I just use his Ringman username. Otherwise, I can't really think of anything. TrakBro? BroNar?

 

I'd go with BroNar.

So I did my highway drive today! It went really well! However, it was super stressful (I hate changing lanes!). Now I have my 3 hour evening class, a quiz tomorrow that I have to study for, a date tomorrow that I'm kinda freaking about (he's a uber nice guy) and all I want to do is lay in bed and write angsty fics

 

Go to the date, don't freak out and leave the angsty fic writing for some other time

Seriously. You have to spell it out for young people nowadays.

 

Good Luck on your quiz and your date Briannakin!

I love it when people use their screen name in some way to refer to their significant other... Adorbs!

 

My nickname for my significant other is not TOS compliant.

 

The BroNar might be coming over again this weekend, so we'll be working on Halloween stuff. He's working on convincing his wife to let me come to the party, because she wants my decorations, but she doesn't want to invite me. Only her friends and her family are important. She wants nothing to do with ours. So, the BroNar (that sounds so weird) is going to tell her flat-out that he wants me to come over. If I can't come, they won't have the party. That's that.

He's quite frankly tired of her bull.

 

Sorry to hear about that, Trak. I hope the BroNar (hee-hee, that does sound weird, but fun) succeeds in getting you an invite, but at least if he doesn't he'll be able to put his foot down.

 

I've made it perfectly clear that if anyone wants to borrow my severed heads, I'm coming with them. I've acquired these decorations myself over the years and I'll lend them out, but I'd like to come with them if they're being used for a party or something. Especially since I make decorations and props.

And I haven't been to a decent Halloween party in forever. And the business of BroNar's wife writing off our family needs to stop. Yes, I know I'm the black sheep of the family. I'm not that bad, however. What does BroNar's wife think I'll do? That I'll somehow ruin her party by being there?

 

I am thinking about going to a haunted house this year...maybe. I am reluctant because eight teenagers died in the last haunted house I visited. There was a fire that burned down the house with people inside. It was only a few days after my best friend and I went through it. I remember how dark and scary and a freaking maze that place was. I can't imagine being stuck in that place as it filled up with smoke and burned! Ack! I still get chills thinking about it.

We plan to just have a haunted garage. Though, given enough garbage bags and a basic idea, BroNar and I could put together a maze. Anything that moves, though, we'd have to do. It'd require a ton of puppeteering, as we're cheap. Though, a spring-loaded spider is cheap and we could get a few and cannibalize them for parts...

Granted, we were also talking about stripping down Halloween animatronics and putting new outer shells on them. Or getting a lot of Teddy Ruxpins and stripping them down to their skeletons and putting the FNaF crew on them, so we'd have mini-bots.

I've yet to finish paying off a mattress, yet I'm planning to build robots. Priorities!

 

I'm doing Halloween Haunt at Kings Island this Friday night for the fourth year in a row. The houses aren't as high quality as some standalone attractions, but there's 11 of them spread throughout the park, and the whole thing is included with my season pass, so why not?

Go do it. That fire was 30 years ago. Today's haunted house industry is far more cognizant of the dangers of fire then they were back then, and modern laws and building and fire codes reflect that, often having special sections that deal just with haunted houses.

 

Way to date a woman's age, jcgoble3...

*ducks flying bricks*

 

Well, Jedi_Lover linked to the article...

 

For those of you who don't know, I've become a middle school youth group leader at my church, and tonight we were assigned our "tribes" of kids for the year. We got to come up with an awesome name for our tribe and design a flag. As the year goes on, we'll have "Tribe Wars" for games, and each tribe has 2 guy leaders and 2 girl leaders, and after talks, we break off into small groups by tribe and gender. It was really great meeting the guys I'll be with for the rest of the year, and I'm looking forward to learning about leadership as well as sharing my heart with them.
